21st Century Learner - Colloboration

Tonight at our MindLab course we explored and discussed Collaboration vs Co-operation. I had never thought about the distinction between the two activities. So I engaged in some reading to support my understanding further.

I have learnt that Collaboration is so much more than just students completing a task together.  Students working collaboratively will be

• Working together
• Share Responsibility fairly
• make substantive decisions together
• work is interdependent

I look forward to thinking about this more over the next few weeks, about how I can change my pedagogy and classroom teaching activities to be more collaborative.
